On the afternoon of August 11th, 2009, chief Yang and officer Xie Desheng of the Domestic Security Division in Xianyou, Fujian, and police from the Daji and Longban village police stations broke into the home of Falun Gong practitioner Zheng Zeyu and ransacked it without a search warrant. They broke household items and alarmed Zheng Zeyu's only relative, his younger brother Zheng Zexin, who suffers from leprosy.

The neighbours begged the police to stop tormenting the unfortunate brothers, who had been orphans since childhood. But the depraved officers ignored them. Zheng Zeyu became homeless. His brother was left on his own, unable to take care of himself.

The Zheng brothers suffered difficulties since childhood, relying on each other for support. Before practising Falun Gong, Zheng Zeyu made his living as a garbage collector1. Sometimes, in order to feed himself, he even committed theft. After becoming a practitioner, he found the true meaning of life and quit all his bad habits. He learned a trade, so he could support his brother and himself. Often, he helped others in need.

Zheng Zeyu is grateful to Falun Gong for changing his life, for changing him into a kind and responsible individual who thinks of others first. He hopes that good-hearted neighbours will help his brother.

Around 5:00 p.m., also on August 11th, 2009, the same officers who broke into Zheng Zeyu's home also broke into another practitioner's residence. They ransacked the houses of Lin Xue'e and Zheng Senhua. They even ransacked the storage room, the chicken and duck coop and the doghouse. Whenever they came across locked rooms, they kicked the doors until they opened. Only women, the elderly and children were home. Officer Xie Desheng said to Zheng Senhua, "We'll leave a bite for you to eat."

Some officers from Xianyou, Fujian have mistreated practitioners for quite some time. On one autumn night in 2002, one Xianyou police department head named Zeng Jinxiong, Xie Desheng, and a dozen other officers climbed over walls to enter the homes of Lin Xue'e and Zheng Senhua. Despite Zheng Senhua not being at home, as he was forced to teach elementary school in a remote village -- they picked the lock of the front and back doors. Then, they broke into Lin Xue'e's house. Finding that only Ms. Lin and the children were at home, Xie Desheng beat Lin Xue'e and dragged her across the stone porch, in full view of the neighbours. Lin Xue'e was injured all over her body.

Zeng Jinxiong and a group of officers also persecuted practitioner Xie Liqian, tearing apart her family. Among the seven family members, six were taken to jail, detention centres, brainwashing centres, or other places of detention. When alone at home, police ordered thugs to arrest Xie Liqian's eldest daughter Chen Danxia. They slammed her head repeatedly against the wall, trying to kill her. She was severely traumatised by the beating. Xie Liqian, due to the relentless abuse and torture, passed away in 2006.

Officer Zeng Jinxiong was later arrested after being caught accepting bribes from murderers and other criminals.
